  1. Actually it looked like from the first half, the refs were trying to throw the game to KSU. Gambler money? And those spots in OT?
  2. And in the same spot 3 years later against Alabama.
  3. How about Austin Peay, Utah St. and UL Monroe? That's Alabama's non-"SEC" schedule.
  4. Alabama-LSU rematch in 2011 was the 3rd lowest title game in the BCS era. Only the USC-OU (after getting stomped by KSU) and Miami-Nebraska blowouts were worse--and those just barely.
  5. The line shifted from TCU favored to KSU favored late. Wildcat money to the refs?
  6. Hey, the BYU fan is right. After aggy, Louisville message board posters are the most insecure. BYU is only 3rd. Don't know how many times I have read the school that hired Pitino after the FBI affair sting and Petrino after his motorcycle ride with gf/employee at Arkansas was somehow too honorable to leave the Big East early so the Big 12 "settled" for WVU.
  7. How about Texas 2008?
  8. He's overrated and cocky. No slack. He's good, but he's no Bryce Young.
  9. Man there were some horrible takes on the first 4 pages of this thread. I felt like USC was way overrated. Computer polls thought so too.
  10. Because he was better than anyone on the USC side?!
  11. For all the complaints about Greg Davis, he had the highest scoring offenses we ever had and the 4 best QBs on the 40 acres since James Street and Bobby Layne. And we had some really good defensive coaches. They were so good they got head coaching jobs. Chizek, Muschamp, Robinson.
  12. Compared to Charley Strong and Steve Sarkasian so far, he was pretty good. (note-I am only talking relative to our other post Mack coaches)
  13. We already rotate the title game. It is bid out. Its Sofi in LA this year. NRG in Houston next year. Mercedes stadium in Atlanta the year after that.
  14. The committee will use one set of reasoning one week and the exact opposite the next week. Its really been a disappointment and a very bad system. Especially when Tom Osborne and Barry Alvarez were on the committee.
  15. And with byes, half the teams in the NYD bowls will certainly sell out their allotment.
  16. You have an astronomically better chance if you are Auburn or Tennessee than if you are Kansas or Baylor. Doesn't have anything to do with the conference. But yes, the Big 10 would get the most at large bids, with the SEC right behind. The rest far behind.
  17. No, but with Utah, TCU, Cincinnati, UCF, UH and BYU in the P5, its not going to happen very often. Excluding the Covid year, during the BCS and playoff era, there were never 2 unbeaten G5 teams (excluding the 6 who will be P5 in 2023) in the same year. In fact, there have only been 8. Boise 4 times, Marshall, Hawaii, Tulane and Western Michigan. And WMU the only one since 2009.
  18. In college basketball, 20% of all teams and 50% of power conference teams get in. Not only that, but everybody gets a mulligan with the conference tournament. In football it will be 9% of all teams and 15% of power conference teams. No conference tournament. Totally different.
  19. Don't think so. They can now more afford a loss in those games. They aren't elimination games.
  20. Who are better than everyone Ohio St. played but ND, Michigan and PSU.
  21. Realistically, we don't recruit against TCU. We recruit against Alabama, Ohio St., Clemson, UGA, USC and then OU and aggy.
  22. Agreed. They screwed TCU in 2014 for Ohio St. and didn't give them a shot in 2010. They screwed Okie St. in 2011 for a Bama mulligan.
  23. The deal is for two years. Then they have to bid out the next deal and re-negotiate the revenue split.
  24. I think there are too many schools nobody would want in the ACC for it to dissolve. Maybe they make a deal to release a few schools. But who is going to take Pitt, SU, BC, Louisville, Wake Forest? And with SEC and Big 10 money being so big now, who would be interested in Georgia Tech or NC St or Duke?
  25. I switched. I was first a Colts fan. No pro football teams near Central Kentucky at the time. Cowboys my 2nd team since family was from Texas. Bengals moved up to 2nd when they got the expansion franchise. Colts traded off or benched, Unitas, Matte, Bubba Smith, Norm Bulaich, etc. and I dropped the Colts, so Bengals and Cowboys moved to 1 and 2. In basketball I followed the Kentucky Colonels in ABA and Cincinnati Royals in NBA. Dropped the Royals when they moved to KC. Colonels got dumped in the merger and I picked up the Rockets as we were back in Texas at the time. But I do think college is different. There are alumni ties, not just city ties. And its not the "top level" like the pros. Plus the T-shirts who grew up Ole Miss fans just aren't going to start rooting for Alabama if Ole Miss gets left behind. They'll just root for the Saints and drop college football.
